preCICE workshop 2027
The 7th preCICE Workshop will be held for the first time outside Germany, at the Delft University of Technology in The Netherlands, on March 1-5, 2027, co-organized by Matthias Möller and his team within the Numerical Analysis group and the G+Smo community. The workshop is a coming together of the preCICE community to share ideas, experiences and knowledge about using preCICE, and to learn from others in the process. Like always, we plan to have user and developer talks, hands-on training sessions, discussions with the developers about your applications and use cases, and plenty of opportunities for networking. Read more about how a preCICE workshop looks like.
The workshop will include a hands-on training course. The course is suited for both beginners and current preCICE users, since advanced topics will also be covered. This year, we are extending the course by two new modules: one on best practices in the development of preCICE adapters and one on how to couple solvers using Isogeometric Analysis (IGA).
Keep watching this space for updates on registration, the workshop program, and more.

Call for contributions
The form for contributions will be available very soon.
We are looking for talks and posters that could be beneficial for the wider preCICE community. Are you developing a new adapter? Are you using preCICE for an exciting new application? Are you developing new methods that should not be missing from preCICE? If the answer to any of these questions was yes, we encourage you to submit a brief abstract for a 20 minutes talk. Are you revisiting one of the classical preCICE use cases? Did you already present your work in a previous workshop? Then we would be very happy to catch up with your work, and we encourage you to present a poster. After review, and depending on the available slots, we might suggest a different presentation format than you originally applied for.
You do not need to submit a contribution to join this workshop. However, your contributions are very welcome!
